[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]So if you meet the cutoff (eg 223 for Maryland)[/b] then you are a Natl Merit Semifinalist. Then you and your school submit a package with SAT score and grades and an endorsement from the principal, and baded on that the Finalists are selected? Am I undersranding this correctly? If so... unless you are a Finalist and end up getting a scholarship from a school you're interested in, what do you do with this honor? Add it under 'awards' on the common app? The colleges already know your grades and SAT score so what's the point?[/quote] Just to be clear, there is no evidence that the cutoff in MD is 223. All we have is one person reporting that their kid made it and that kid had a 223. Cutoff is likely lower. If anyone else in MD has been notified with lower than 223, it would be helpful for others to share that.[/quote] My kid had a 223 last year in MD but the cutoff was 224. [/quote]
